Dr Pipin Kojodjojo is a cardiologist practising at Mount Elizabeth Hospitals, Gleneagles Hospital and Parkway East Hospital, Singapore.
His clinical expertise include atrial fibrillation and heart rhythm disorders in adolescents and adults, implantation of cardiac devices such as pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators, catheter ablation of simple and complex arrhythmias, left atrial appendage occlusion for stroke prevention, pulmonary thrombectomy for acute pulmonary embolism and management of syncope and cardiac dysautonomias (a condition where the autonomic nervous system does not work properly).
He was a former director of cardiology at Ng Teng Fong General Hospital (NTFGH) and a senior consultant at the National University Heart Centre, Singapore.
Dr Kojodjojo graduated from St Bartholomew’s and the Royal London Hospital Medical College, University of London and is a member of the Royal College of Physicians.
